Programmes and Courses

People with a thorough knowledge of the areas of sport and health are needed in schools, in sports, and in the whole of society. It is the task of the the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, to provide higher education for those who are going to fulfil those needs.

Language

The language of instruction in all our undergraduate programmes is Swedish. To be able to follow the education, students need advanced Swedish language skills. Students without knowlegde in the Swedish language can be offered to follow the more practical courses in Swedish with English support. This is subject to agreement.

The single courses can be given in Swedish or English.

Grades

Incoming students will, according to a decision made by the Vice-Chancellor, be graded on the ECTS A-F scale (domestic students are graded on a three grade scale).

Apart from the academic advancement, during their stay, insights in Swedish culture and society are bonuses to visiting students.
